For whatever reason some folks refer baht บาท ฿ as bahts. There is no such thing as bahts in Thai or its currency, so please cut it out because it looks silly.

Or bath. They can't pronounce Laos either. Immigration card should have 20 questions to eliminate these morons.

    Yeah common for people to quote prices back home which are completely irrelevant, try telling them that

I think a police clearance report for everyone,...and I mean everyone should be required. Too many wannabee gangtsa types here....and while we are at it, a drug test also...the only way to keep Thailand safe 👍

Yes anyone wanting to stay longer than 30 days police clearance report, that would work

But that's not the reason they are stating other currencies. Saying it's only 395 baht or £10 in UK for a roast dinner is plane stupid. Who cares what it is, it's totally irrelevant..in fact 395 baht for a roast dinner is very expensive..at that rate it should be £80 in UK...which we all know you can get a roastie for £15 or less

Not up to you what people should do or not do.
